    Bracing A 48" Stand

    dnjan, you are right about that design being inadequate for my purposes. It is just the opening in the front I want most. I can brace the back and sides for lateral and torsional stiffness... Maybe I will skin it too, I was just trying to be cheep :) So if I skin it, lets say I can brace this...

    Bracing A 48" Stand

    The first pic Katchupoy posted is pretty much the idea... though I will use my own dimensions. My main concerns here are that the stand may sag under the wieght and crack the tank. I do intend to use foam padding/insulation/camping matress ect, to give the tank something to settle level on.

    Bracing A 48" Stand

    To give a basic idea, I was thinking two rectangles and four uprights similar to spipedong's.

    Bracing A 48" Stand

    I plan to use 2x4's to frame it and 3/4" ply for the top of the stand and a top for the sump to rest. I may not even skin the stand(this does not need to look good, just be strong enough to not colapse). I want easy accese to the sumps. I will use another 55gal. as the sump or two 15/20gal.

    Bracing A 48" Stand

    I am going to make a stand for a standard 55gal. glass tank (48*13*21) and I would like some advice first. I'm not a structural engineer, but I was thinking I would NOT need center bracing with a stand/tank this size. Is this true? All opinions are welcome. Thank you for reading!

    Frag Plugs

    I do not know about your area's LFS... but I would suggest making your own (cheep/easy).

    My 90g braceless framless build!

    Quick thought, do not forget to change that outlet behind the tank to a GFCI if thats what you plan to use for power.

    Happy Halloween

    I just saw that pic last night on xtremepumpkins.com. There is all kinds of cool pumpkin stuff on that site! Some where on that site they have a wild looking squid too. I'm having a pumpkin carving party for friends and kids this weekend... but once it gets late in the night I'm doing the...

    Share your ideas on the ideal Frag tank

    To save energy... could you place the frag tank at the same level as the sump, plumbing the two together and letting the prizm and maxi's do thier thing?
